Why do Western gaming studios seem to hate attractive female characters? More important, why do they hate making money? Let's find out.

"In the shadowed recesses of our world, there thrives the Subhuman, a vile harbinger of desolation, etched from the very essence of repugnance. This abominable entity, a grotesque mirage of life, roams the realms of creativity and beauty with malice in its heart, a relentless storm of destruction. Born from the ashes of desecration, it is the antithesis of grace, an embodiment of corruption, seeking only to degrade the splendors it can never possess. The Subhuman is the whispered nightmare of art, the chilling draught in the hallways of innovation. It is the malignant growth on the tree of civilization, sucking the marrow of culture, leaving behind the skeletal remains of what once was. Its presence is a stain upon the canvas of existence, a deliberate insult to the notion of beauty itself. With every step, it defiles purity, its touch a corrosive, unholy blight. Museums, galleries, and theaters, once bastions of human expression, become its hunting grounds, where it mocks the sublime and revels in the decay of aesthetics. Its laughter, a cacophony of disdain, echoes through the corridors of creation, a sinister reminder of its mission to unmake. In its eyes, a reflection of the void, beauty finds no sanctuary, for this creature is the living embodiment of the plague, a perverse mirror held up to the face of society, revealing the ugliness within. It is not simply a destroyer; it is a malignant force, a parasite, feeding on the vibrancy of the world, leaving behind a desolate landscape devoid of color, life, and hope. Its existence is a stark portrayal of the entertainment industry's darkest facets, a metaphor for the uglification of civilization and its cultural expressions. In its unrelenting quest to desecrate, the Subhuman symbolizes the eternal struggle between creation and destruction, beauty and grotesqueness, highlighting the fragility of art and beauty in the face of overwhelming nihilism. As we behold the wasteland it leaves in its wake, we are compelled to confront the truth about our values, our society, and the costs of our own complacency. The Subhuman, in its hideousness, challenges us to rise, to reclaim the sanctity of our civilization's soul, and to recognize the beauty that exists not in spite of it, but because of the darkness it represents. Only then can we truly understand that the ultimate victory lies not in the erasure of ugliness, but in the unabashed celebration of beauty, in all its forms." - Wulf Sorensen

It’s not concerned whether you are ugly or not, the point is we want to see something beautiful not only for the scene but also for the character in games and movies.

If the imaginative world is as fucked as or even worse than the real world , then what’s the point.

Personally, I blame the millennial generation who have stepped up into key corporate and developer positions in response to their old-school and passionate predecessors seeing retirement. A great number of games today, when released, failingly deliver uniqueness and/or replay value and further reveal themselves as dismally soulless. Cult classics like left 4 dead achieved what seems of the postmodern generation as an impossible task, the repetitive challenge that is stimulating and exercises naturally the old aphorism of "less is more".

When you look at stuff women and girls like without judgement (we're more prone to faking interests based on social pressure, I'll concede that much) it's not different from how guys interact with characters. The mind virus going around these days has rotted more than a few brains, but remember what things were like in the early 2000s, the 90s, etc.-before things went to sht. Folks with narcissistic tendencies are a different story. They can't separate the character from themselves at all. These are the people social media gave a platform to seem louder and larger than they are. They were annoying enough as "journalists". The reason female characters are sht is because people think women don't want to pretend to be someone else. As if beauty is now offensive. As if we have no goddamn imagination or sense.

A generation of games created by a generation who hate themselves. I was very fat for most of my life. Still am but I went down from 320 in high school to 240 now. At no point did I ever look at Masterchief, Liu Kang, commander Shepherd, and any other number of buff and handsome male leads and say "Ewww. That's not me. Why don't they look like dough and have average looking faces." I didn't because I, like i think most dudes, don't hate good looking guys. As the meme goes we usually see them and wish we looked like that. Letting these insecure women run art design feels like they're constantly trying to get back at the pretty mean girls in high school and they're taking it out on our female characters. Both past and present.

While it was a movie and not a game, the early test screenings of the film Shrek elicited unexpected feelings of anxiety in children in response to the character Princess Fiona. She was simply too lifelike, causing kids to feel unnerved and even frightened, many crying whenever she appeared onscreen. Exaggerating features in both attractive or 'monstrous' characters creates the 'other world' we want to live in during our fantasy escapes.

I’m a woman, and I NEVER asked for “representation”. I grew up on classic science fiction and never had trouble emphatizing with male protagonists and characters. That’s the fun of FICTION - to abandon YOUR skin, YOUR life, and be/see the world from someone else’s lens. I never had trouble playing as male characters, and to this day would often chose in multiple-char-choice games the male ones - simply because I like looking at guys more, which is the case with many dudes who play as attractive female characters. But not only because of that, but because male storylines in games are more well, interesting and dramatic. Tbh, I agree with the woke crowd on one accord - female-centric heroes and stories ARE more boring. But they’re boring because of two things: the same woke crowd and also the dudebros who too cannot write a believable woman. There are very few COMPLEX and truly interesting female characters, both in film and in games. It’s either dumb shit written buy guys who invariably want a waifu, or feminist “im stronk independent girlboss shit”, where female strength is interpreted completely wrong and an insultingly pandering manner. There’s barely anything in between, the golden middle. Amanda Ripley from Alien Isolation? Yes please. Fat Aloi/Eloi whatsername - no thanks. My point is - give me female characters that are first and foremost as interesting as their male counterparts. If you will, a female Master Chief, but who’s as TRAGIC as the MC, and not just showing everyone how she’s the bestest Spartan everrrr and how every military male leader is beneath her. And as far as Star Wars Outlaws goes… yes, I, as a woman, don’t need representation, I’m not an egotistical narcissist. I don’t want to play generic sarcastic brownhair woman-girl (even tho I kinda am one), it’s a fucking Galaxy FAR FAR AWAY. I want to play a fucking former slave Twi’Lek, or a rogue droid, or a fucking Hutt! I want to be a badass alien, a new fresh taste of imagination, and not fem-Solo (but worse). That’s it. Rant over.

That's really interesting. I'm a guy (43) and I've almost always liked female-centric heroes and stories over male-centric. Reason being is that I felt more catharsis from the female characters' stories because they were able to express a full range of emotions that men were seemingly not allowed to show. Men were almost always restricted to stoicism or righteous anger, whereas women were able to be both strong and vulnerable at the same time. Women could be ass-kickers in one scene and a sobbing mess in the next and it wouldn't make the character look weak or unappealing, it would just make you understand and feel for them more, as long as it flowed naturally from the plot. Nowadays, more and more women are written as condescending and insufferable, I feel nothing for them except the same contempt they and whoever wrote them have for me, and the plight I'm meant to sympathize with is a parody/exaggeration.

As a huge Yakuza fan, playing the series has been a significant part of my life. Last year, I was particularly inspired by Ichiban Kasuga's incredible physique in the game. His image of strength motivated me to start working out and focus on my nutrition, leading to a transformative journey of self-improvement. This newfound dedication not only changed my physical health but also had a profound impact on my mental well-being. It helped me connect with myself, realize the importance of personal growth, and ultimately overcome depression. For me, this experience highlights a crucial aspect of gaming-motivation to improve. Throughout my childhood, playing a variety of games taught me that to progress and complete a game, I needed to continuously improve my skills. This same principle applies to life; without the motivation to improve, what's the point? Gaming isn't just about entertainment; it can be a catalyst for positive change and personal development. I'm grateful for the lessons and inspiration I've gained from the Yakuza series and gaming in general.

I can confirm this. There are currently over 70 playthroughs of the Stellar Blade Demo by female players on KZbin. 5 of them object to the 'skin suit' or even the green "planet diving suit" and one objects to camera angles that display Eve's curves. That means ca 93% of female players have no issues with Eve and her outfilts. Several dozen of the female players explicitely praise Eve's beauty and her sexyness.

Who can say, but if I can't make them look good, then I'm upset, and even I know the examples Drinker used are awful and would tick me off if I were stuck with them. Heck, I was frustrated with ME: Andromeda's character creator because I had trouble making something passable with it.

My wife started playing Hogwarts Legacy a little while ago. At the character creator screen she saw all the default character options and asked "Why are they all boys? Can I chose a girl?" I said "What do you mean? There's a bunch of girls." and I pointed out a bunch, to which she said "...🤨Are you sure? Those don't look like girls." Out of the ~70 characters, she could barely identify one or two as women from their character portraits.

The "world we live in" reflection is a terrible selling point for me and simply put it's because no game I ever play is ever meant to put me in the world I live in. It's called escapism. Even when I play a simulation level game like Flight simulator, or "realistic" game like Madden or Fifa, I'm not playing those games because it reflects any nature of the world I live in. I play them, because there was still the fantastical element of me pretending to be something I'm not. Even parody games that "mimic" real life such as the various "Simulator" games have a bit of a fantastical element. Powerwash Simulator obviously isn't something I would go and really do in the real world, but can play pretend with and have fun doing.

Same. She was so nice in ZD, she had charm, compassion and some kind of quiet beauty. I love playing as her in ZD and she looked good even with the actual game engine, for example while running. I actually finished FW, too. I still did some screenshots during some of the cutscenes where she looked quite nice from some angles. But I noticed right from the start that they changed her for the worse. I actually hate that they put us in this trap. Would I call a woman that looks like FW Aloy ugly? Not at all! But we have references to her character from ZD. And for me that's a downgrade. She looks 10 years older, tired. A bit better in cutscenes, but sooo tired while in the game engine. And she is quite unlikable in how she speaks and behaves. And look.. I get the story angle, that she has reasons to look and behave like this (although I would love some in-game explanation about why 19 year old girl looks like this or my immersion and perception of story continuity breaks). But this is not a book or a movie. We spend sometimes 100+ hours in games immersing ourselves in everything around the main character. So maybe it's a question to myself, why I want to play as a tired, pissed off character when I just want to relax from a working day... Well... I actually liked the fighting mechanics of FW!
